Anyone familiar with Rental / business laws in Morgan county ?

I have a neighbor from hell ( renting) running a commercial cleaning business in a residential neighborhood.

I'm wondering if this is legal?

In a hood with a HOA?

No. Just a street that used to be nice and quiet until she moved in .
Now there's people coming and going all hours of the day/night.

You sure it's a commercial "cleaning" business? Why would her customers be coming to her house, especially at all hours of the day and night? Seems like she would be going to their businesses. Maybe "cleaning" isn't the business she's running out of her house.

I hear ya but no, it's a cleaning business.
The people coming and going are her "employees " , loading and unloading from her garage.

Because commercial cleaning is done overnight....when businesses are closed.

Goodwill does our cleaning. During regular business hours. (Finance Center at Ft. Ben) I do know that a lot of businesses don't do it that way though.

She doesn't operate with normal employees and she's not a normal employer.

There's been drunk fights at 01:30 , daily drunk driving, people Male and female peeing in her driveway, etc. Plenty more.

My long time neighbors say the police have been here more since she's been here than in the last 30 years .

I'm trying to solve a problem that started about two years ago.

Can you find out who the owner / landlord is and contact them? Maybe they don't know this person is doing that. Maybe it violates their lease. That's where I would start.

Found out that info today, just trying to gather more info so I can hopefully appeal to his business sense over his need for money.

Oh man. Seems like almost every otherwise good neighborhood has one of "those" houses. I've lived around places like that and it sucks, but if they get tired enough of the police stopping by, maybe they'll move.

Are you on the Nextdoor app? There's a lot of crap on it, but it kind of serves as an electronic "crimewatch" group too. We managed to have at least one such resident "removed", I think from all the publicity. Shady characters that allegedly paid cash for the house, and were allegedly dealing out of the house.

There were kids that lived right next door too. It wasn't just the people that lived there either. It was also the visitors, a lot of which came from the crack motels at Thompson and 31 I believe.

ETA: I don't know if your neighbor is dealing drugs or not, but I would think it wasn't normal for commercial cleaners to come home to their bosses' houses, have drunken fights and pee in the driveway. Sounds like the activity that was going on at the house in our neighborhood. Walks like a duck, quacks like a duck...

I'm trying to get this done discreetly so as to not destroy her or her boyfriend's business.

They both know I don't care for either one of them but so far I'm trying to be civilized about this rather than making the news.

I was editing my post while you were posting. Are you saying that she and her boyfriend don't have anything to do with it?

I do understand that, and that's kind of one of the things I like about the Nexdoor app. Your addresses aren't displayed. You're just part of a neighborhood as they define it. But in our case, I think maybe the people at the problem house may have seen, or got wind of the comments from all the people around them.

People like that don't like attention.

She's a " recovering " ( air quotes ) meth addict/ alcoholic, he's a current alcoholic/ rumored to be a drug dealer so who knows.

Was pretty much the norm over here. Most of those butt sacks have moved on due to the efforts of the local LEO a few of who are members here. And some of the neighbors standing up to these crap sacks.....

As long as they pay the rent most landlords could give a **** what goes on.

Wait....you are west side also. Interesting.

Yeah... get rid of them any way you can. Just my advice from dealing with that type of people (and not just neighbors, but "family"). You can't save them unless they want to be saved from that kind of stuff.
